how to hide your windows xbox name on roblox

You can usually hide the Xbox gamer tag only indirectly : Roblox on Xbox may still show your Microsoft/Xbox identity in some places, and there isn’t a reliable in-Roblox toggle that fully removes it. Roblox’s own support for visibility controls focuses on online status and current experience, not on hiding the Xbox name itself.

What to try

  1. Change your Xbox/Microsoft account display name if you want a different name shown on Xbox services. Xbox says you can edit the name in your Microsoft account settings.
  1. Set your Xbox real-name sharing to Block so your personal name is not shown to others.
  1. In Roblox, review privacy and visibility settings so your online status and current experience are limited as much as possible.

What this means on Roblox

A Roblox developer forum post notes that Xbox users are expected to use Microsoft gamer tags as part of the console experience, which is why the name may still appear in Roblox on Xbox. A recent Reddit post from January 2026 shows another user with the same issue, suggesting this is still a common limitation rather than a simple setting problem.

Practical workaround

  • Use a Microsoft/Xbox gamertag you’re comfortable displaying.
  • Hide real-name sharing on Xbox.
  • Tighten Roblox privacy settings for online visibility.

TL;DR

If you mean the Xbox gamertag inside Roblox, there’s no confirmed Roblox setting that fully hides it; the best move is to change your Xbox name and lock down Xbox privacy settings.
